| Summary: | Recent technology development of alternatif energy sources as a substitute for fossil-fuels
had produced hydrogen-fueled fuel-cell as a potential substituent. Recently, research on the
improvement of fuel-cell’s efficiency and also the production of the hydrogen fuel itself have
been intensified and involve many majors on its development. Based on previous research,
hydrogen can be produced through dehydrogenation of cyclohexene to produce benzene with
anthracite coal as catalyst. Computational studies of this mechanism had been done before
involving two models of coal active sites, i.e. armchair and zigzag. This research aim to
substitute cyclohexene with methanol, which hopefully would make us understand the
properties of both coal’s active sites better. The entire computations were based on
unrestricted Hartree-Fock Method with basis set of 6-31G(d). In this research, the impacts of
using different graphite coal models on reactivity and the mechanism that occur in hydrogen
production were obtained. |
